SHORT ANSWER
14. (1 point):
Active volcanoes are erupting or have erupted recently and are expected to erupt again in the future. Dormant volcanoes are not active now, but may become active again in the future. Extinct volcanoes are no longer able to erupt.
15. (1 point):
Rock under high pressure melts at a higher temperature. Rock that is under less pressure will melt at lower temperatures.
16. (2 points):
Igneous rocks are formed as melted rock, or magma, cools. Fast cooling produces small crystals in the rock. Slow cooling produces larger crystals in the rock.
17. (1 point):
The volcanoes on the west coast were formed by the subduction of the Nazca plate under the South American plate. This type of convergent plate boundary does not exist on the east coast of South America. This explains the lack of active volcanoes there.
18. (1 point): More silica usually results in a more explosive eruption.
|Type of volcano |Type of eruption |
|Shield |Non-explosive or quiet |
|Composite |explosive |
|Cinder cone |Fire fountain (small bursts) |
19. (4 points):
20. (1 point): As long as their answer has volcanoes in it give them the point.
-----------------------
[pic]
The map shows that a number of active volcanoes follow the western coastline of South America, but there are no volcanoes on the eastern coastline. Explain why.
